Bug#968560: unison-2.48: Bad alternative link for unison



I guess I had it at some time, but now it's 2.48.4-7, for which the bug appeared to me.

Using unison though network with ssh, since last update I could not have it
work.
Connection was lost right after I give my password.

Launching unison from a shell, I could see that it was looking for a file,
unison, that could not be found.

I found out that it came from the fact that a link
/usr/etc/alternatives/unison
(where /usr/bin/unison points to) was pointing on an invalid file,
/usr/bin/unison-latest-stable-gtk, that does not exist.

In my case I had to change that link to point on /usr/bin/unison-gtk

I suspect you have unison-gtk 2.48.4-4 (or earlier) installed. Can you
confirm that?

I would fix that by adding "Breaks: unison (<< 2.48.4-5~)" to
unison-2.48 and similarly to unison-2.48-gtk.


Cheers,
